If I remember correctly I picked up the steering column on eBay for $190 and both buttons from a Mercedes wholesale website for around $90.

Not bad at all! I thought the steering column would cost a lot more than that.

I came across these and wanted to get some feedback on what you guys think about these aftermarket taillights made for 10-13 W212 that look like the facelifted version.

beejAMG

^ not bad at all. Imo as long as you stay away from the clear tail lights. Now that one you found, It seems to function like the actual facelifted lights is that right?

Kobzarhomes

Yes, not liking clear ones as well.

Yes, they look and function like facelifted ones.

Yup, I also agree on the clear ones don't look that great.. maybe on a white car but not really to my liking. Euro tail lights are pretty played out.

I actually ordered these tail lights (or ones very similiar) but from a different source. They actually look pretty good for replicas of the '14 tail lights. Searched and did lots of comparisons before pulling the trigger on the purchase. Supposed to be plug and play too with no error codes... made sure the seller honored that cus I don't want to splice any wires in case I put the originals back in at some point.

There's alot aftermarket copy cats but look horrible and super el cheapo. I think these actually look pretty darn good. I'll create a separate thread of my car once they come in.

Just curious what price did you find these for? I got mine for $719.00 shipping included.

Kobzarhomes

Can you please post a picture of the ones you purchased. Thanks

AMG_Freak

They haven't arrived yet but here are some photos.

Kobzarhomes

Ok, they look the same to the ones I have been looking at. I got a quote directly from China with shipping $525.

I'd stay away from the aftermarket from a brand called MARS. I think they're an Aussie company.. they have some cheaper versions that look straight up ****ty and some that look similar to what I ordered in Red, Smoked, and Blacked out. But if you look closely, you can see an exposed wire where the light housing bends around on the clear leds (bottom portion). Kinda questionable in the pic, figured they'd be worse in person.

AMG_Freak

Dang it! Wish you posted this a couple days earlier. The ones I purchased were last ones from the seller on ebay.. was worried if I waited they'd be gone or you would have snatched them up since you were getting many of the same things I'm after for my car! Haha!

Kobzarhomes

lol.... I came across them yesterday and so kinda thinking about it still
Let me know when they arrive and post some photos.

Thank you

I know... I might have to find a way to return these and purchase from the Op's source and save $200.

Kobzarhomes, those look good in the pictures. I'd say they're worth a try. (Now I wonder if they make them for wagons. Haha)

Kobzarhomes

Thank you

I can ask them and find out

Here is a picture of what the side markers looks like in the evening.
